Blue Star Limited reported FY2026 consolidated revenue of Rs 12,402 crore, up 3.6% from Rs 11,968 crore in FY2025. However, profit after tax declined 10.8% to Rs 527.33 crore from Rs 591.28 crore in the prior year. The company reported an exceptional item of Rs 38.83 crore (net), mainly from reversal of Rs 18.80 crore excess labour code provision and Rs 1.28 crore one-time expense. EBITDA margin expanded from 7.32% to 7.50%, while net profit margin contracted from 4.91% to 4.23%. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs 8.50 per share (down from Rs 9 in FY2025). Statutory auditors Deloitte Haskins & Sells issued unmodified audit opinions on both standalone and consolidated results. The 78th AGM is scheduled for August 6, 2026.
Blue Star's revenue growth was modest while profitability declined due to one-time exceptional items and higher costs. The dividend reduction may disappoint income-focused investors, though the margin expansion indicates operational efficiency gains. The clean audit opinion supports financial reliability.
